Nodejs Expess Script Unable to Create the Mysql Database Table - mysql

Question

I created node js express applications with express generator. I am trying to create table by executing database script called db.js . This script is located into database folder . I am able to run the server but when I tried to execute the script by using C:\Users\Khundokar Nirjor\Desktop\Nodejs Resources\shopping-cart\database>node db.js
C:\Users\Khundokar Nirjor\Desktop\Nodejs Resources\shopping-cart\database>
It is not able to create the table or inserting records.
Here is my app.js code .
var createError = require('http-errors');
var express = require('express');
var path = require('path');
var cookieParser = require('cookie-parser');
var logger = require('morgan');
var indexRouter = require('./routes/index');
var usersRouter = require('./routes/users');
var expressHbs = require('express-handlebars');
var mysql = require('./database/db');
var app = express();
require('./database/db');
// view engine setup
app.engine('.hbs',expressHbs({defaultLayout: 'layout' , extname: '.hbs'}));
app.set('view engine', '.hbs');
app.use(logger('dev'));
app.use(express.json());
app.use(express.urlencoded({ extended: false }));
app.use(cookieParser());
app.use(express.static(path.join(__dirname, 'public')));
app.use('/', indexRouter);
//app.use('/users', usersRouter);
// catch 404 and forward to error handler
app.use(function(req, res, next) {
next(createError(404));
});
// error handler
app.use(function(err, req, res, next) {
// set locals, only providing error in development
res.locals.message = err.message;
res.locals.error = req.app.get('env') === 'development' ? err : {};
// render the error page
res.status(err.status || 500);
res.render('error');
});
module.exports = app;
Here is the db.js code .
var mysql = require('mysql');
//var app = express();
var con = mysql.createConnection({
host: "localhost",
user: "root",
password: "",
database: "shopdb"
});
con.connect(function(err) {
if (err) throw err;
console.log("Connected!");
var sql = "CREATE TABLE products (imagepath VARCHAR(255), tittle VARCHAR(255), descriptions VARCHAR(255),price VARCHAR(255))";
var sql1 = "INSERT INTO products (imagepath, tittle,descriptions,price) VALUES ?";
var values = [
['https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/5/5e/Gothiccover.png', 'Gothic Veido Game','Awesome Game !!!!','25'],
['https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/5/5e/Gothiccover.png', 'Gothic Veido Game','Awesome Game old !!!!','100'],
['https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/5/5e/Gothiccover.png', 'Gothic Veido Game','Awesome Game New !!!!','120'],
['https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/5/5e/Gothiccover.png', 'Gothic Veido Game','Awesome Game !!!!','26'],
];
con.query(sql, sql1,[values], function (err, result) {
if (err) throw err;
console.log("Number of records inserted: " + result.affectedRows);
});
});
con.destroy();

Answer 1

You should enable multistatement true while creating a connection as you are running multiple statements.change your configuration options as below:
var con = mysql.createConnection({
host: "localhost",
user: "root",
password: "",
database: "shopdb",
multipleStatements: true
});
